Is flat screen TV an electric saver?  

No. They use more energy than the old models. Tell your moms she needs to look in the mirror at the person who is causing the electric bill to go up. How much in dollar amounts is 3000 pesos anyway?

No it doesn't save you any money on your electric bill. In fact I asked my husband who knows about this stuff & he said that the big your TV the more electricity it uses so yes it will make your electric bill go up.

I don't know what 3000 pesos equals to in US money but I have a 32 inch flat screen tv and from what I heard they use less electricity then the old tv's. My electric bill is not high at all. I usually have at least one or two tv's on for the better part of the day along with the computer. My electric bill averages only about 45.00 dollars a month. I also use the newer light bulbs all through the house and I don't leave lights on unnecessarily. I also keep appliances unplugged when not in use.

I honestly dont think it saves more money or uses less than your conventional tube telly. If you are having dizzy spells watching TV then you need to go see a doctor. Don't they warn people nowadays that if you have dizziness while watching TV that you should stop and go see a doc? That could be the onset of a seizure ya know.

But no, Screen TVs arent electric savers. Tube Tellies FTW

yes cause if im correct if running less than 80 watts than other appliances or the not flat one TV's our electric bill is usually run about 2500 plus cause of the aircon not our Flat TV :)

I think that flat screen tv an electric saver.. because they having a good technology.. which have electricity saver.. and also like to see very good.. because it designed good.. have a nice day and keep mylotting always..

Its never like all the flat TV's are electric energy savers, it solely depends upon the sophisticated technology being used to manufacture that product. Some newly designed LCD TV's are energy saving..

no it will not save any power at all and consume more than old ones

Be aware of that :)

Happy mylotting :)

While it's true that flat tv requires less energy (Watt) than normal tv..I guess to watch about 12 hours a day makes it somewhat useless if the goal was to save electricity....

Actually flat screen save energy but expect higher electricity if you have Bigger TV. How do I know? I uses 1 monitor before its an old TV monitor my electric bill is around 1000 pesos but when I buy a new flat screen monitor it went down to 600 pesos how is that? see the difference maybe it will also depends on the model and featue of your flat screen I bought LG energy saver flat screen.
